This video is doing really well so I'm glad you all enjoy this series idea. We just wanted to see whether or not these viral youtube videos with clickbait titles are actually any good and while something tells me they can't all be good, this recipe shows that some of them are worth your time. Look forward to more of these my friends and HAPPY COOKING to you all.
I did half the honey, twice the soy sauce, and added ginger and fresh red hot chili peppers, then served with chives and fried onions. Hands down one of the best chicken breasts I've ever had. Trying it with Tempeh this week too!
Hey I was thinking pepper flakes to add but yours sounds amazing! Were your red onion fresh, pickled, or sautéed. I’m doing this today with jasmine rice😊 Thank you for sharing
I cut down the butter and syrup a little bit but I've been making this recipe for a couple years. I eat it all the time. It's good for meal prep. I love it.
Sophie has the best recipes ever... I watch her all the time... The great thing about Sophie's recipes are that they are not complicated and they are easy to cook... When ever my family gets tired of the same old food I hit up Sophie's channel and get a new recipe or two...
So I follow Sophi, her dishes are fantastic and I have made this very dish a few times my self. Totally worth the views. but here is the spin. As a single father of two in a high ranking job with a love for cooking, I am wiped out by the time I get home with my girls and only then do I have to start cooking, by the time were done, I have nearly no time with them before they have to go to bed. Sophi's recipies, if you look closly are all generally healthy and can be done in a very short time, and so thanks to her, I let my 7 year old use my Myabi and or kenshun, and she is able to make this dish compleatly by her self. It gets her interested in healthy cooking, makes her feel like a grown up master chef. the reward she gets from cooking and seeing the clean plates is a win win all round. I would give 10 out of 10 to this woman, just because her dishes are mostly easy for a younger audience to cook.
I do this on a regular basis. Sometimes instead of apple cider vinegar I use Balsamic vinegar and instead of syrup I use honey. I've cooked pork and beef the same way and it's all GOOD.
Having made this myself when skeptical, I was fully expecting the "holy crap that's actually really good" moment you and you friend had. The recipe is stupid easy and comes out way better than it has any right to be, lol.
OK, I'm sold - definitely putting this in the dinner rotation for next week! ETA: We made it and it was freaking awesome. I also doubled the soy sauce and added a tablespoon of dijon mustard. Fan-freaking-tastic! Tender, juicy, little bit of crust and lots of nooks and crannies for that delicious sauce. This one is now in the regular rotation!
This is gonna be a great series! I appreciate that you approached your rating honestly and didn't let the fact that it was basically a tik tok recipe sway you.
@@thatdudecancook Thanks Dude, I've been cooking chicken breasts this way for years, easy and perfect every time. Try honey instead of maple syrup, creates a better glaze. Let us know when the funeral service is for the fridge, I think he's done. 🍻
Second this comment. Gonna be a GREAT series and thank you for all you do sir. Your vids got me back in the kitchen and having fun once again! Wish I had a fridge to punish
@@Magnum3144 lol I know, right?? I lowkey wanna buy an old fridge at a secondhand store just to beat the shit out of it when I do a great job in the kitchen. Looks cathartic!
I felt EXACTLY how you did about this going in. I have not tried it yet but upon hearing the ingredient list I thought how can this not be great. I'd probably serve it over rice with steamed broccoli to cut down on the thick and sweetness
At first, I thought you were going to trash it. I'm really happy that you didn't and that you actually liked it and gave her credit. I'm looking forward to the rest of this series.
Sonny is fair and doesn’t have a competitive ego. I think this will be a great series, and for those things that aren’t so good he will recommend some changes. This is smart and fun times for foodies.
Yes, I agree....I have looked a few of the various "Rezepte/Recipes" on YT.... there are various sites and some of them are just plain repetitive.....same ingredients, some boringly so. Many are just a conveyor belt variation on a theme of those same staples. This particular one looks quite interesting though....and on Sonny's view...I WILL try it! Enjoy your kitchen!
Thanks, Bro! We had fun making this one so it will be cool to keep it going and test some more of these viral youtube recipes, This one was great but I have a feeling that they aren't all winners if you know what I mean.
Sophie is from Germany or from a German-speaking country - or rather she could have been, as I don't know it for a fact, rather I'm just guessing by the name of the channel, and people seem to have spotted several inconsistencies in her German. Essen rezepte (approximately EH-ssen reh-TSEH-pteh) means cooking recipes (literally "to eat recipes"). :)
I made this last night and followed it almost to a T and it was really good. The only thing I changed was I added 1/4 a cup of maple syrup, some red chili pepper flakes, but other than that it was awesome.
This is a great idea for a series. I hope you do this for a while. I'm usually skeptical of all viral recipes. They usually look good, but taste boring (not bad). Only exception was the viral baked feta/tomato pasta. That was a shocker.
90% of Sophie's videos say that she makes them or could make them every day or a few times a week. It draws eyeballs and clicks. Glad to know that they are indeed delicious. Thank you. Gotta try it now.
I made this recipe a couple days ago and we LOVED it! I too was sure the chicken would be dry. But no! Nice to see your confirmation👍 My mods were more soy sauce and more vinegar. Plus, after 3 mins on each side, I set the chicken aside while I did the sauce, then added them back in, basting and turning while the sauce thickened up. I served it with another YT recipe, buttery garlic rice. Yum! 😋
Just made this and it was great. My picky wife went back for seconds. I am always hesitant to try trendy meme recipes, but this technique is really good. The scoring helps the thick part of the chicken have more surface area and cook at the same rate as the thinner part which keeps it juicy. Pan sauce was great after adjustment to make it less sweet. Will def make it again.
I will have to try this recipe. But I have been cutting my chicken like this for quite some time. Usually I marinate it overnight in oil, lime juice, salt/pepper, and tarragon. Then toss it on the grill the next day. A nice bright and juicy chicken. This recipe looks good in a completely different direction, but just as simple.
Pink Himalayan salt is mined from ancient sea beds in the Himalayan region, and some studies have found that it may contain trace amounts of heavy metals like lead and arsenic. While these levels are generally considered to be safe for human consumption, people who consume large amounts of Pink Himalayan salt regularly may be at risk of long-term heavy metal exposure.
The accomplished chef in you comes out in wishing to tweak the recipe here and there...kudos to you for giving a this recipe such high marks after going in with such skepticism! Looks like this will be on the menu this weekend at my place. Thanks, Sonny!
Years ago, I was tired of having my chicken breasts take forever to cook in the thick parts while overcooking the thin parts, and I didn't want to try to flatten them, so I started cutting them like this. I got out of the habit of doing this, not sure why, but it's neat to see someone else do it. I also never thought of dredging them and making a thick sauce for them. What a great idea.
I cooked Sophia's version at the request of my family. It got that incredulous, overwhelmed- with-flavor reaction from everyone! I'm a big fan of your videos.
As a former line cook at a few good restaurants in NYC, I used to think all these viral tiktok recipes were absolute trash. The one that made me change my mind was the baked feta pasta. That one was actually good.
I follow Sophia’s channel and it has helped me cook easy dinners with cheap ingredients and lots of veggies. It might not be her aim, but it works. I like it a lot, even though there are hundreds of channels like hers with similar recipes.
Thanks for your video! My grandmother made this when I was young, She put garlic and ginger, even a little soy and honey with orange zest in there.. cross cut the chicken the same way. Awww.. the memories. She's a WW2 survivor from Germany, RIP Awesome Grandma! I didnt realize the lady who hosts Essenrezepte is German! RAD! I have to make this for my friends now. I would prefer to do this with Sunflower high oleic oil.
I usually ignore those "This recipe is so good, everyone will lick their plate and ask for more" channels like a plague but this series won't hurt much. 112k view on the second day!! That's a huge number dude. Congrats!!🎉🎉
I watched this video for the first time last night. When I woke up I made it... The only thing I can say is wow! This easy recipe exceeded my expectations. It may be the best chicken I ever tasted.... EVER! It was THAT good! Presentation is 10/10, taste is 9/10 and texture is 10/10. Only reason I gave the taste a '9' is it was slightly sweet for my taste but that can be easily adjusted. PS- I used a quality maple syrup instead of honey. Also, if you add the garlic too early, it will burn black. I added it at the end while making the sauce
It doesn‘t do anything to prevent the butter from browning, it just waters down the amount of butter so when it browns you notice the browning flavor less
@@geekmac9349 My full comment states that it prevents the butter from browning “so easily”. That is because the olive oil does increase the smoke point of the butter. On another note, to agree with you it does dilute the flavor of the browned butter. Of course the butter will still brown. Perhaps I should have stated that it doesn’t brown as “quickly” in lieu of “so easily”.
This is interesting. Butter browns around 300°F, and EVOO smokes around 350°F (Light Olive Oil is around 470°F). I wonder why the addition of olive oil would slow the Maillard reaction of the butter solids.
@@johnafleenor2986 Butter browns because after boiling off the water content the milk solids toast in the butter fat. By adding olive oil you only add more fat for the solids to toast in. The solids will toast at the same temperature either way, the smoke point of the oil surrounding them has nothing to do with it
Tried this yesterday and it was amazing, absolute hit with all my friends. Thanks for sharing! Did use a bit less honey and a bit more soy sauce on mine than the original recipe
This series has everything it needs to be amazing. Too many other series like this are done by people who can't cook or just don't prepare properly, so half the video is "I didn't have any of x so I'm just going to use x" and they don't have the know-how to realize it will COMPLETELY change the dish! So many possibly good recipes are ruined by people just being ignorant for content. You should be able to do all of these recipes, so we can TRUST if they're good or not!
I've been following Sophie for a while now. Her food videos are awesome, and looks delicious. Most of her meals are paired with potatoes. She must own a potato farm or something
You mean Rosemary Potatoes? There's hardly a week goes by without someone on "Das Perfekte Dinner" (Come Dine with Me) cooking these with Bohnen in Speckmantel (Green beans wrapped in bacon) and doing as if they created something fantastic.
I slightly reduced maple syrup (3 TBSP) & increased soy & vinegar (2TBSP each) as you suggested after tasting. we enjoyed this and will make it again, i may tweek it a bit. liked that it was quick & easy. Thanks Dude.
sprinkle lemon juice on top when finished or serve with some lemon quarters on the side. I love adding lemon juice to almost everything chicken that I make.
Thanks for sharing this recipe! Just made it for my wife and I and it turned out great! Added some chili oil at the end to cook the garlic and make the glaze.
My first video and it couldn't be a better click bait! I am just so glad I found you and yes, more and more and more of these! Have great day and thanks for bringing me some joy!
Ive made some minor change to this recipe in terms of soy sauce/syrup/vinegar levels but other than that I keep it the same. It's an absolute staple in my household. Once a week, Umami Sticky Chicken, cannot get enough of the stuff. Really appreciate the channel and series for having an honest go at these types of recipes and being honest when they're fucking amazing. Keep up the good work so I can keep telling folks that I can cook too!
This dish is amazing. I didnt get the recipe off here, but i hv been making this for a couple years. I used scallions, not chives, and at the first time i used brown sugar not honey or syrup as my honey had gone bad, but its great either way. One of my favorite stove top chicken recipes. I actually happened upon it trying to recreate a dish i had in a restaurant. Try it if u love chicken!!!
Just made this chicken recipe, took your advice to use less maple syrup. Turned out delicious, that sauce is everything.. thanks for testing it out for us! I will be making this recipe again. 😋
Made this for dinner last night. I went to the original page, and found the background music quite soothing while cooking. The only “problem” is that if the breast is quite thick (which many are anymore) it takes longer than 3 minutes per side to cook, which makes the breast a little tougher than it should be. But it was very easy, very good, my husband really liked it, and it will part of my regular menu rotation now.
I’ve followed you for years, and made this after seeing the original recipe…you’ve validated my thoughts! Thanks for all you’ve done to help hone my cooking skills!
I've done that for years. Finally got an instant read thermometer. I use it religiously. For chicken breasts I stop cooking at 155. carry over heat gets it easily to the safe zone it it's quite tender and juicy. Hope this helps!
Butter has such a low burn temp so I always add olive oil to my butter to increase the burn temperature. You can cook with butter flavour at a way higher temperature when olive oil is added.
Half the maple syrup, the soy sauce was the extra dark, black garlic, apple cider vinegar, dipped my chicken in my preseasoned flour I keep in the freezer, fried in butter and olive oil. And pepper. Served with steamed spinach (that I cooked in the same pan from the chicken added a splash of water and some lime juice) and a whole avocado. A chunk of french bread...Yummy!
I watch her recipes all the time.... she has an ASMR feel to her cooking... i believe she's in Germany. First time seeing your content though... i subbed. Cheers!
Thank you for adding this video! I always see these videos and recipes on RUclips and they are very soothing to watch and listen to, but I had not given one a go myself yet.
Agree on the pink salt. Always sea salt for me, personally. Quite happy that Vancouver Island Sea Salt is produced here. One of my fave salts. Only changes I'd have made, would be brining the breasts 1st. Great way to infuse flavour and add some moisture. I'd have made it with skin on boneless thighs. No need to brine, but a rub left on for a few hours would add some depth (Gochugaru, smoked paprika, mustard powder and granulated garlic. You could also use these flavours in a brine).
Since her recipes don't have titles, and I followed your suggestion to reduce the honey and increase the soy sauce, I have saved this recipe as "Sophie's Chicken, Sonny-Side Up". Subscribed for the crazy eyes ("Don't Look at Me') while squeezing the potatoes in your review of her other recipe (the Frozen Chicken Breast thing).
I've made versions of this and it is very good. Slicing the chicken like that allows for all the flavors to penetrate the chicken breast. It also makes it super easy to cut with your fork. Yum!
This video is doing really well so I'm glad you all enjoy this series idea. We just wanted to see whether or not these viral youtube videos with clickbait titles are actually any good and while something tells me they can't all be good, this recipe shows that some of them are worth your time.

might be a nice gesture to reference the original video link, no shade, much love
It wasn't too dry, Sonny? I had the same thought that you did about the scoring.
Is the 50 states series squashed?
I did half the honey, twice the soy sauce, and added ginger and fresh red hot chili peppers, then served with chives and fried onions. Hands down one of the best chicken breasts I've ever had. Trying it with Tempeh this week too!
Yeah, it's way too sweet as is for sure

So many possibly good recipes are ruined by people just being ignorant for content. You should be able to do all of these recipes, so we can TRUST if they're good or not!
I am diabetic and was able to adjust this recipe to be low carb. Tasted great. I will be making it a lot.
Dude seriously u are one of the best RUclipsrs!! Educational and funny!! Love it....thank you!!
I'm making this tonight for the family. Dad points are going to hit 100!
How did it go?!
@@AK-jt7kh I cooked some saffron rice and steamed broccoli with it and it was a family hit.
I've been following Sophie for a while now. Her food videos are awesome, and looks delicious. Most of her meals are paired with potatoes. She must own a potato farm or something
Germans love potato. Pretty much an unoffical national treasure for them.
@@zoe..d Not only Germans
You mean Rosemary Potatoes? There's hardly a week goes by without someone on "Das Perfekte Dinner" (Come Dine with Me) cooking these with Bohnen in Speckmantel (Green beans wrapped in bacon) and doing as if they created something fantastic.
I slightly reduced maple syrup (3 TBSP) & increased soy & vinegar (2TBSP each) as you suggested after tasting. we enjoyed this and will make it again, i may tweek it a bit. liked that it was quick & easy. Thanks Dude.
Dude I don’t even care about the chicken recipe, that was the most epic fridge scene ever!
I would love to do this to my fridge also. Kitchenaid makes crappy (and overpriced) refrigerators, but the matching stove and dishwasher we have are 👌
I have the same machete for my fridge! 😄
Everything she posts she says is so good she cooks it everyday.
sprinkle lemon juice on top when finished or serve with some lemon quarters on the side. I love adding lemon juice to almost everything chicken that I make.
I have seen her videos and there are many she cooks everyday. Not sure his she manages to make so many everyday. Maybe she owns a restaurant.
+100000 on the sentiment
It’s called clickbait.
I can't stand those titles.
man this is a fire recipe......everyone you make i will try it
Thanks for sharing this recipe! Just made it for my wife and I and it turned out great! Added some chili oil at the end to cook the garlic and make the glaze.
I talked the wife into trying this one day, we have made it several times since. So delicious and reheats wonderfully
Thank you! I've never seen this! It looks so good! I'm going to try it right now for dinner but with some hot honey. Hope it's good!
My first video and it couldn't be a better click bait! I am just so glad I found you and yes, more and more and more of these! Have great day and thanks for bringing me some joy!
Ive made some minor change to this recipe in terms of soy sauce/syrup/vinegar levels but other than that I keep it the same. It's an absolute staple in my household. Once a week, Umami Sticky Chicken, cannot get enough of the stuff. Really appreciate the channel and series for having an honest go at these types of recipes and being honest when they're fucking amazing. Keep up the good work so I can keep telling folks that I can cook too!
I make this once a week with honey, soy sauce and rice vinegar. My friends and family members too!!! Easy and delicious!!❤❤
This dish is amazing. I didnt get the recipe off here, but i hv been making this for a couple years. I used scallions, not chives, and at the first time i used brown sugar not honey or syrup as my honey had gone bad, but its great either way. One of my favorite stove top chicken recipes. I actually happened upon it trying to recreate a dish i had in a restaurant. Try it if u love chicken!!!
Just made this chicken recipe, took your advice to use less maple syrup. Turned out delicious, that sauce is everything.. thanks for testing it out for us! I will be making this recipe again. 😋
The cut straight to the fridge was hilarious! Glad I've found you
I just made this for the first time for dinner! Thanks for the recipe, my family loved it!
Bruh, you're an inspiration. I started seeing your guys when the pandemic hit and look at you now. Amazing job.
I found this recipe on RUclips a year ago. I have made this several times and I absolutely love it!
Made this for dinner last night. I went to the original page, and found the background music quite soothing while cooking. The only “problem” is that if the breast is quite thick (which many are anymore) it takes longer than 3 minutes per side to cook, which makes the breast a little tougher than it should be. But it was very easy, very good, my husband really liked it, and it will part of my regular menu rotation now.
I’ve followed you for years, and made this after seeing the original recipe…you’ve validated my thoughts!
Thanks for all you’ve done to help hone my cooking skills!
Made this the other day. As I tend to do, I overcooked the chicken (I never seem to get it right) but it was still very good. I will be trying again.
I've done that for years. Finally got an instant read thermometer. I use it religiously. For chicken breasts I stop cooking at 155. carry over heat gets it easily to the safe zone it it's quite tender and juicy. Hope this helps!
I make this very often. I love it. Easy delicious. Never dry. I also add ginger want to try some green peps.
I just made this tonight for the 1st time. It was much easier a quicker than I thought it would be and it tasted amazing.
Butter has such a low burn temp so I always add olive oil to my butter to increase the burn temperature. You can cook with butter flavour at a way higher temperature when olive oil is added.
That's not true, it doesn't increase it in the slightest.
Half the maple syrup, the soy sauce was the extra dark, black garlic, apple cider vinegar, dipped my chicken in my preseasoned flour I keep in the freezer, fried in butter and olive oil. And pepper. Served with steamed spinach (that I cooked in the same pan from the chicken added a splash of water and some lime juice) and a whole avocado. A chunk of french bread...Yummy!
The wife - who doesn't cook a lot - made this tonight! It was awesome... especially given the ease of preparation/ingredients. Thanks!!
I was looking for a good chicken recipe to copy/paste to our stove top. I think we found it with this video! Praise the Lord!!!!
I watch her recipes all the time.... she has an ASMR feel to her cooking... i believe she's in Germany. First time seeing your content though... i subbed. Cheers!
I am already loving this new series! I was so hoping that someone would try out all of the highest food likes videos.
Thank you for adding this video! I always see these videos and recipes on RUclips and they are very soothing to watch and listen to, but I had not given one a go myself yet.
Agree on the pink salt. Always sea salt for me, personally. Quite happy that Vancouver Island Sea Salt is produced here. One of my fave salts.
Only changes I'd have made, would be brining the breasts 1st. Great way to infuse flavour and add some moisture. I'd have made it with skin on boneless thighs. No need to brine, but a rub left on for a few hours would add some depth (Gochugaru, smoked paprika, mustard powder and granulated garlic. You could also use these flavours in a brine).
Made it! It was really good! Awesome recipe! Used orange blossom honey and wow! Really easy recipe Thank you! I'll be making this again!
Since her recipes don't have titles, and I followed your suggestion to reduce the honey and increase the soy sauce, I have saved this recipe as "Sophie's Chicken, Sonny-Side Up". Subscribed for the crazy eyes ("Don't Look at Me') while squeezing the potatoes in your review of her other recipe (the Frozen Chicken Breast thing).
I tried this last week and, Man, it was good. I'm gonna try it with pork chop. I think that would be great as well.
I've made versions of this and it is very good. Slicing the chicken like that allows for all the flavors to penetrate the chicken breast. It also makes it super easy to cut with your fork. Yum!
Genuinely educational videos that make me chuckle is a rarity. I love how you gone from love tapping the fridge to a mix of jason/john wick
Это действительно отличный рецепт, готовлю так уже несколько лет.
This is a really great recipe, I've been making it this way for several years now.
I honestly think you are one of the best on youtube.. Great video
Could you imagine growing up with this guy? Insane bro!
